I am not sure if what I am looking for exists but I'm sure you guys will! To keep the info short, my effects chain ends in a single 1/4" mono output (from a small 4 channel mono mixer mounted on the board) which I either connect to a DI to send to a PA system and monitors etc. or I use a mono...

I came across this new mini battery powered bass amp from Laney and I was wondering if anybody has tried one of these out yet? Obviously this is aimed at competing with things like the Blackstar mini amps, so I do not expect it to pump out amazing bass, but at 66€ it seems like a cheap...

I am trying to decide which bass to take with me to a Reggae/Dub colab next week. I was mainly thinking of taking my 5 string ESP ltd, but I was also debating whether flatwounds would be better. My only bass with flatwounds (other than a fretless J which is out of the question due to lack of...

Does anyone know of a freestanding synth program for Windows? I am looking for something that is not a plugin, in other words does not need a DAW to function. This would be to install it on a low spec small laptop running win10 just to play some simple synth chords on a 25 key midi keyboard...

I posted this on another forum but thought it would be cool to get TBs input also. What effects would you consider more "melodic"? In other words, non dirt and distortion related. Things like chorus, delays, mild synths etc. No need to be brand/model specific (unless you want to), I am just...

As the HPF has become the latest holy grail around here, I was wondering how many people use one that play in the really low registers such as low tunings (B or lower), octave downs, sub synths (such as a Meatbox) etc?? Those that do (if any) do you find it is something that helps or hinders?

I recently picked up this bass as I wanted to try 6 strings for a while before dropping more money on one (in case I didn't like it). The bass itself is great for what I wanted except for two flaws that are very irritating. As you can see by the shape of the body, access to the upper frets...

On Thursday I became the proud father of my second son (16 years after the first one), and luck would have it that my first 6 string bass was also delivered. We just got home from the hospital today hence the N"B&B"D!! First the important part... A beautiful little boy that is healthy (after...

What songs have bass lines that are pretty much repetitive for the whole song but are great bass lines/songs none the less? Things like Good Times by Chic etc.

I have been doing my own set ups on my basses since I joined TB, however, I have never owned a bass with dual truss rods before (I have one incoming). I was wondering if there are any tips regarding setting up a bass with dual trusses?

I apologize if this is not the right place to ask this. Can anyone who uses Guitar Pro tell me how I would write the part highlighted in blue? I have tried all kinds of things, but I either end up with a silence there or another F# .

I have seen multiple reviews and demos of this pedal, but I haven't come across the answer to my question yet, maybe one of you Sub'N'Up users (or anyone really) could help me out? The toggle switch has three positions, Poly/Toneprint/Classic. When in Toneprint mode, I understand that this...

Just wondering what is out there in terms of basses that have both magnetic and piezo pickups. Bonus points if it is still in production. Extra bonus points for a 5 string. If it is a 5er, short scale and is still in production... you win the internet ;)

I just received an American Sound (it is the Ammoon but is identical to the Joyo). Lately I am working more on looping, but also playing with a couple of other people and am leaving my combo (Rumble 500) at one of the practice spaces. The idea is to be able to run ampless the rest of the time...

At the end of my signal chain, I have a the two outputs of a looper (A&B) running into a small mono mixer that mixes them back to one single mono output. The mixer outputs Line level, which is fine for me to run into a DI to balance it and go to PA etc. But I am wondering about running it into...

Just a curiosity here... If you have a combo amp, with an extension output, this extension output is almost always wired in parallel to the speaker in the cab. If you then had an extension cab, which also has a "through" connection to daisy chain to another cab, this is also (almost) wired in...

Anyone have any ideas on effects to imitate a piezo style pickup? I am particularly looking to imitate a 5 string ABG (EADGC) with bronze strings but using a 5 string LTD b205 with dual soapbars and D'Adario nickel strings. Obviously not looking for exact, but a similar vibe to play with a...

We all know that on TB we have a habit of randomly answering threads without reading all the posts, in fact, I think there are many people who don't even bother to read the OP. So let's take it one step further... Answering threads without even opening them!! Just by looking at the thread...

To cut a long story short, today I was invited to a guitarists rehearsal room tomorrow evening to "see if anything comes out of it". It wasn't a very long conversation, but the jist I got would be that we would discuss what we have in common tastes and play some of it for a couple of hours to...

To cut a long story short, I am looking for an octave up. I have enough sub bass with the Meatbox so I am really focused on just the up. I am currently embarking on a new project with a percussionist in which I am doing a lot of looping. Currently I am using a bass and a piccolo bass into an AB...

I am currently dividing my large board into 3 smaller boards. This is mainly to aid storage and transport. In order to reduce set up time, I am thinking of putting one power supply on each board, so all I have to do is connect the in and out plus one power cord for each board. Are there any...

First, I do realize that I am a minority in seeking this specific sound, but we all have our own tastes ;) Most people hate the sound of bronze strings that you get on an ABG, however, I have an ABG that is strung EADGC and I just can't replicate that sound on any of my other basses. I would...

I received the Boss Rc-3 yesterday and I look forwards to being able playing with it and getting used to not using a PC. As I just started a 2 week vacation, we are heading to the beach house, so what better time to play with it :) I have thrown together a quick board to take with me that...

For the last 20 years or so, I have always been available for my job. Not that I haven't had vacations, I have just always been available for emergencies (funny how everything is an emergency nowadays!). This year I am trying something new, I am disconnecting! I have passed on the relevant...

This may be a silly idea, but most of mine are anyway ;) So, I needed a compact travel practice rig for my ukes. I had tried them through the B3 and while there were plenty of useable tones, with certain patches some of the higher notes did not register. Due to this I thought I would get the...

I recently built myself a pedalboard, and whilst I am happy with the outcome, there are a few issues that I planned incorrectly. As I am due to become a father again in a few months, I had to convert my music room back into it's intended purpose as a bedroom. This means I have had to relocate...

I am currently using a Behringer UMC204HD for my living room set up. I am running the Main Balanced L&R outs to my main living room system and running the Output A (1/2) which are unbalanced into an RDL input transformer that sums L&R into a single balanced mono signal which I feed into a...

My short scale P Bass wears LaBella flats. They have been on there for a few years but are still pretty new. The thing is that the silk winding on the tuner end of the G string has disintegrated and fallen off. This causes the string to slip when nearly up to pitch. Is there a way to solve...

This is rather difficult to search for, so, what basses have the smallest headstocks with room for tuners?

I haven't managed to find any photos of one online, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist ;) Now, the longer explanation... I travel a lot, sometimes I can take an instrument case with me, which means I can take a bass, but sometimes this is not possible, or I am making a trip where I...

First off, I apologize that this is not bass related! I have a small guitar, 19.5" scale, that I would like to tune to BEADGC (but an octave above bass), although I would be ok even with regular guitar tuning. I have tried various string calculators on line but each one gives me a different...

I am still new to the world of effects pedals, until recently I had been running only a Zoom B3 into a DAW, which means I had plenty of effects available and didn't have to worry about phasing issues, or blending issues etc. I am putting together a pedal board at the moment and I mentioned the...

I am currently working on a pedalboard that I will be using for Bass and Piccolo bass, and I would like to split my signal in orger to blend back some bass that is lost sometimes. My signal chain is: A/B Switch > Preamp > Tuner > Vibrato* > Autowah* > OCD Clone > Tubescreamer Clone >...

Is it possible for the LS-2 to switch between signal A, signal B and mix of A+B? In other words, could I use it to switch (using the foot pedal) between clean, wet or mixed? Or just 2 of these options? I could mute the Wet signal before it returns to the LS-2 if that would help?

I come in search of help, as usual :D I am about to put together an A/B/C input pedal at the beginning of my effects chain, in order to quick switch between instruments when looping. I would also like to include attenuation in the pedal, to allow me to balance levels easily. Although two of...

I am sure I have read about this a few times on here, but I am failing to find the threads this morning (it's early and I've only had one coffee ;) ) I have a bass that I am refinishing, which has the compartment (badly) painted with shielding paint. The paint is cracked and missing in some...

I am sure there are plenty of people that know far more about networks than I do, so I would appreciate any troubleshooting ideas people may have. I recently switched my ISP from Cable to Fiber optic, but as I already have my internal wired and wireless neworks set up, I just wanted to swap the...

I apologize if this has been answered, but I have read through numerous threads where the RC-3 is mentioned, but I haven't found a definitive answer. The RC-3 is stated as being a "True Stereo" pedal. Does the pedal keep both L and R completely separate throughout the pedal? In other words, if...

Not sure if this has been posted (I haven't seen it) but Davie504 now has a signature bass made by Chowny. There are actually some cool colours available. Invalid Link Removed

Just out of curiosity, what is the longest (currently) thread on TB? I know the "Fender Rumble Club" thread has over 23k posts (and over a million views), but are there threads out there with more posts?
